I'm glad you're still working on this, I asked if you were on it a few weeks ago and nobody answered to it. I'll try to look if I have some usefull routines inside all the programs i've made so far (of course the ones that you haven't covered yet). Best Regards, Guillermo Bonvehi AKA: Caballero Rojo - Knixeur Jeffrey Fielding wrote: There are currently three developers working on ESL, and we've made some progress, though ESL is far from finished. In case you haven't heard of ESL before, it's a library that was originally designed to help solve Euphoria's current namespace problems and encourage code reuse through a standard, uniform, easy to use, and comprehensive set of frequently used routines. Although namespace problems are not so much of a concern now, I think ESL will, when completed, help by increasing code reuse (and thus decreasing development time, at least somewhat). Furthermore, I think ESL would help newcomers to Euphoria by providing routines which they might expect to find built-in (abs(x), for example). Anyway, you can see what we've done so farĀ at the ESL project site on sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/standardeu/ All our work is currently in CVS - we haven't made any releases since it's not anywhere near complete, and the code is probably going to change a lot before it is - so if you want to look at the source, you can browse the CVS. I wouldn't suggest using it yet, though, since the final version will probably be incompatible with the current version, and the current version hasn't been thoroughly tested. So if you have any suggestions as to what to add, or even better, if you have an include file or two (or just a few routines) that you'd like to contribute, please send them to me or, if you want to join the project, send me your sourceforge username and I'll add you to the list of developers so you contribute directly through CVS etc. Jeff
